Prime Mining Corp. (“Prime”, or the “Company”) (
TSX.V:
PRYM) (
OTCQX: PRMNF) (
Frankfurt:
O4V3) is pleased to announce that the Company will begin
trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") on December 5, 2023
following its graduation from the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"TSXV"). The trading symbol for the common shares of Prime on the
TSX will remain unchanged as "PRYM". Concurrent with the
commencement of trading on the TSX, the common shares of the
Company will be delisted from the TSXV. Shareholders are not
required to exchange their share certificates or take any other
action in connection with the TSX listing. There will be no change
to the Company’s CUSIP.
Prime is focused on the exploration and
development of its wholly owned high-grade Los Reyes Gold-Silver
Project in Sinaloa State, Mexico (“Los Reyes” or the
“Project”).
Prime Chief Executive Officer Daniel Kunz
commented, “We are pleased to announce our graduation to the main
board of the Toronto Stock Exchange, a significant milestone in the
evolution of Prime Mining Corp. Prime has already had a very
productive year. We effectively doubled the Los Reyes resource as
outlined in our May 2, 2023 Technical Report, released our
inaugural Sustainability Report, are on track to complete some
60,000 metres of post-resource drilling, strengthened our board and
management team, and increased our cash position through an early
warrant exercise. Looking ahead to 2024, we are planning an
extensive drill program supported by our strong treasury of C$36
million. With environmental and social baseline studies completed,
we will continue permit planning and early-stage technical work. We
are committed to sustained engagement with shareholders and the
investment community as a new member of the TSX, Canada’s premier
international stock exchange.”
Los Reyes Gold and Silver
Project
Los Reyes is a rapidly evolving high-grade, low
sulphidation epithermal gold-silver project located in Sinaloa
State, Mexico. Since acquiring Los Reyes in 2019, Prime has spent
approximately US$32 million on direct exploration activities and
has completed over 158,000 m of drilling. On May 2, 2023, Prime
announced an updated multi-million-ounce high-grade open pit
constrained resource (see below, and refer to Note 1 and the May 2,
2023 press release for more details).
May 2, 2023 Pit Constrained Resource
Statement
Drilling is on-going and suggests that the three
known main deposit areas (Guadalupe, Central and Z-T) are larger
than previously reported. Potential also exists for new discoveries
where mineralized trends have been identified outside of the
currently defined resource areas.
Historic operating results indicate that an
estimated 1 million ounces of gold and 60 million ounces of silver
were recovered from five separate operations at Los Reyes between
1770 and 1990. Prior to Prime’s acquisition, recent operators of
Los Reyes had spent approximately US$20 million on exploration,
engineering, and prefeasibility studies.
Notes
- Mineral Resource
Estimate is based on economically constrained pits using a $US
1700/ounce gold price, $US 22/ounce silver price, and an assumed
0.22 gpt gold cutoff grade. For more information and other
assumptions, please see Prime’s May 2, 2023 press release, or our
website.
- Gold equivalent
(“AuEq”) grades are calculated as in-situ contained grades,
applying the assumed ratio of gold to silver prices using the
following formula: AuEq grade (gpt) = Gold grade (gpt) + Silver
grade (gpt) x ($US 22 / $US 1700). Relative recoveries are not
considered in the in-situ contained grade estimate but are assumed
to have mill recoveries of 93% and 83% for gold and silver,
respectively and heap leach recoveries of 73% and 25% for gold and
silver, respectively. For more information and other assumptions,
please see Prime’s May 2, 2023 press release, or our website.
